Description
Rapid Test FLU A_B is a qualitative Lateral Flow immunoassay for the detection of Influenza A and Influenza B antigens in human nasal or nasopharyngeal swab specimens. The test targets viral nucleoproteins, enabling rapid identification of both major circulating influenza strains during acute infection.
The kit contains all necessary reagents and is intended for professional, in-vitro diagnostic use. The nasal or nasopharyngeal specimen can also be used with ProGnosis Biotech’s other Rapid Tests for respiratory viruses ( Influenza A, Influenza B, SARS-CoV-2, RSV, Adenovirus), enabling testing for up to five different respiratory pathogens from a single sample.
